Fayke Newes arrives in Northbank office

27/06/2018

Finished copies of Derek Taylor‘s Fayke Newes: the media vs the mighty from Henry VIII to Donald Trump have arrived in the Northbank office, just in time for a certain President’s UK visit. We wonder if he’ll like the cover..

In Fayke Newes, historian and international journalist Derek Taylor tracks the long and bloody fight between the press and those in power through the lives of the men and women who got caught up in the battle. On a journey through the centuries, we crisscross the Atlantic, encountering poisoned-penned Parliamentarians, Civil War scribblers, slandered suffragettes and powerful press barons.
